Dash Snow is dead at the age of 27. He was the self -indulgent artist whose great grandparents were responsible for the Menil Collection located in Houston Texas. Dominique de Menil was an heiress to the Schlumberger oil-drilling fortune. Dash was more a rock star then an artist. He was involved with the art scene on the lower east side coined the Bowery School and in many peoples mind was breathing a new energy into the art world. He left home at the age of 14 to live on the streets of New York City starting out doing graffiti and eventually breaking onto the art scene with a set of explicit Polaroid images of sex and drug use. Amongst them some other interesting photos, one depicted below.
